If one has abandonned film completely, then one doesn't enter such competitions. Really, it's no use arguing with someone who has gone full digital and has no intention of every using film again that they might have need for film some day. Just as it's useless for digitalians to tell folks like me, who are still 100% film oriented, that I'm wasting my time with a dying technology, that my workflow is inefficient, "just wait until you get a digital camera, you'll never look back, yadda, yadda, yadda. (BTW, I don't have "workflow"; I take photographs and some of them get made into prints) At some point, it becomes religion (on either side), and you can't argue with Faith. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
